Best Texas City, TX Drug Rehab Centers

This is the best place for IOP. And I've been to quite a few. Not proud but it's the truth. Every counselor there is AMAZING. If one feels alone and isolated, they won't here. It is also ran by an amazing and caring individual Agatha. I don't like being in group settings but there is something special about this place. They CARE!

Tyler McReynolds here. I have a long history with this place, and unlike many reviews, I actually went here. My brother went through 2 years before me and was there for 6 months. I even visited him at the time. He was sober for 15 years and I was in AA for 10 years consecutively too. I know exactly what goes on at this place, regardless of how you guys want to dress it up over time, or slap on a new coat of paint, or LLC. Staff took away my PTSD medication. I did not want to stop taking it, but they had confiscated it. It had no euphoric effect for me. Came up with their own taper schedule, and I was sick out of my mind for 2 months with no way to get help, while they accused me of not wanting to participate in their groups. Flying under the radar they called it. 30 days in, I could not take it anymore, and took off walking. Hitchhiked in the back of a pick up to a gas station. Begged for change for the pay phone. Made a phone call and wouldn’t you know - I sounded like a complete nut, and no one would believe me. How many people has that happened to. I have not forgotten my rage and disgust, at what you all tout as integrity. I do think: many people who actually survive places like this, have a criminal record and have much more difficulty in finding a steady job after treatment - don’t forget the employment gap. A low hanging fruit, which happens to not care about those things, is a job in the treatment industry. People I think start them with good intentions. But you are mixing good intentions with your livelihood. As time goes on, you get people like Mark Houston, who also threw in prestige and AA fame. They think they needed to be yelled and screamed at, so that is what they do to others. And they’ll say their Sobriety proves it, and that your best thinking wound you up there - so what do you know about anything. I was told we were all connected, all passengers on a ship and all of that - I disagree with that book now - but I would say if there is something that seems to connect me with people I know from AA, it is that we were shamed, dismissed, and ignored, instead of listened to, and instead of having the necessary time or resources to figure out what was going on, what led to the way life became. People kept deciding for me. And while I do not excuse it, I do think many who did that to me, did so based on people having decided things for them too. You are either callous, or too conflicted, from basing your entire career on AA. You have created a monopoly: treatment, sober living, aftercare, monitoring, e-cig juice. I have forgiveness for the wrongs I experienced in AA and treatment centers, but it is still going on. Will you be upset at me for speaking of it? I did not tell anyone to do these things. I was never interested in being involved. Then I spent 10 years in meetings every week, trying to figure out why things never really got better. I started drinking as a boy in 4th grade, and progressed like many do, substances at 14 and so on, and now I am in my 30’s, and I have been free of AA and any other program 5 years; what do your chips say on them? Don’t know what the answer is, but it’s not BRC Recovery, as its called this week. Never was. That was the problem. And part of why I could never figure things out. Life was a puzzle that people kept scrambling, when I’d finally found a corner piece and then they’d blame me. Ask my family for money. These treatment centers are de facto prisons, if you have been in one you know how hard it is to even speak of without sounding crazy. These places took a complicated situation, and made it impossible; turned my life into something even more twisted than before, and how confusing is that, when even courts send people to them all the time. I wish those who still intend well the best, but when will you stop? You all know exactly what I’m talking about with all of this, I do not fear any of you, and I’ll be in the ground before I get slandered or disrespected again, the way I got done at this place before. Don’t let them lie to you too.

I love Tem-Bel AA group, attended the 6:30 to 7:30 classes for so long until my job interfered and had to switch up my time, but Mark, Ed and Danny were all so helpful in my recovery and here I am a year sober. Great small, quaint place to attend if you’re looking to find recovery or just new and wanna see the path you could be on. Highly Recommend
